Spenborough - new to Division Two of the Northern Track-and-field League - have started inching out of the relegation zone.

Josh Cayenne won the 100m and 400m, while Jennifer Ibbitson, Dijan Matheson and Richard Martin scored maximums in their events.

Bingley are maintaining their promotion push in Division Three.

Newcomers to Division Four, Skyrac, finished a promising second behind Pudsey & Bramley, with Leeds City B in fifth and Bradford-Airedale in a disappointing seventh.

The Full Bronte Five-miler doubles as a Yorkshire Vets Championship and brought 202 to the start on a gorgeous late-spring evening last Thursday.

The two gruelling laps climb around Penistone Hill in Haworth.

Holmfirth's Matthew Pierson continued his winning form in 26min 33sec, with the home club's Willy Smith (Keighley & Craven) next in 27min 16sec. Spenborough's Karen Pickles (31min 24sec) dominated the women.

The previous weekend's Yorkshire Vets grand prix at Walton, near Wakefield, was notable for the torrential rain but this failed to dampen Pudsey Pacers' 20-strong contingent.

The Pacers women are challenging Horsforth for top spot, whereas they are one of seven teams closely tied in the men's teams.

Individually, Shaun Dimelow (Penistone) and Sean Cotter (Leeds City) dead-heated, whereas Knavesmire's Kate Nelson won her event by four minutes.

Saturday's Wharfedale off-road marathon from Threshfield saw a tight finish among the leaders.

Dewsbury's Andrew Cottier held off to win in 3hr 6min 8sec, with Shaun Wilkinson (Keighley & Craven) a hundred yards behind. Idle's Chris Stubbs was a minute off, third of the 96 finishers.

Among the women, Otley's Karen Best was runner-up in 3hr 52min 42sec.

Pudsey & Bramley's Richard Pattinson (88min 11sec) led Otley's Andrew Robertshaw home in the half-marathon version. Ilkley's Sally Malir was clear female winner in 1:48.20.
